Bog
This new ground-up house project is a best weekend retreat for Lynn and her husband. They purchased an eight-acre piece of land stretched between a beautiful country road and protected wetlands. The goal was a small(ish) vacation home that offered a getaway and a place to entertain. But this residential construction is more than that, the layout, finishes, and systems also show lga’s commitment to sustainable design. Learn more »
BK House
A great weekend house example for clients who are environmentally conscience to the core and comfortable with modern living. We designed this modern interpretation of an Adirondack styled home in a community with strict oversite of an architectural review board. Our clients wanted a primarily one-story with natural light that would grow old with them. Learn more »
Strivers Row
The renovating apartment project within this formerly derelict row house was impressive and had much potential even if it had been stripped of all its ornate detailing. We planned the main residence for open, comfortable common spaces and ensuite bedrooms. Our clients’ kitchen will be full of light and features such as a central island, aside coffee/toaster station and a breakfast nook overlooking the new deck. Learn more »
